About DCMission

Addressing the Pontifical Council for Social Communications, Pope Benedict XVI called for evangelization using new media, saying "In this way the Church exercises that which can be defined as a 'deaconate of culture' on today's 'digital continent,' using its means to announce the Gospel, the only Word that can save the human being."

In his message for the 43rd World Communications Day, the Pope encouraged young people in particular to engage this 'digital continent' with the message of Christ: "It falls, in particular, to young people, who have an almost spontaneous affinity for the new means of communication, to take on the responsibility for the evangelization of this 'digital continent'. Be sure to announce the Gospel to your contemporaries with enthusiasm. You know their fears and their hopes, their aspirations and their disappointments: the greatest gift you can give to them is to share with them the 'Good News' of a God who became man, who suffered, died and rose again to save all people. Human hearts are yearning for a world where love endures, where gifts are shared, where unity is built, where freedom finds meaning in truth, and where identity is found in respectful communion. Our faith can respond to these expectations: may you become its heralds! The Pope accompanies you with his prayers and his blessing."
